Haroshi, Japanese wood sculptor, specializes in creating three-dimensional art pieces from used and broken skateboard decks. The fact of skate decks are already processed products, due to they’re shapes, signature models and factories, led Haroshi to be able to differentiate from thousands of used deck stocks in order to find which deck fits with which when stacked. After the decks are chosen and stacked, they are cut, shaven, and polished with his favorite tools. By coincidence, this creative style of his is similar to the way traditional wooden Japanese Great Buddhas are built. Find out more about this great sculptor by clicking here.
